Great things come from small beginnings

What can you see from the picture above?

It's a very tiny seed. And if I happen to hold this little thing in my hand, I might prolly throw it away and react in a manner like, "What's this little piece of crap?!, Ano ba, kuto ba to ng aling hayop?!" But did you know where this tiny seed came from? It's a redwood seed. There are two types, the Coast Redwood, (Sequoia sempervirens) and the Giant Sequioa (Sequoiadendron giganteum). If you have no idea what this is then be amazed and be ready to catch your jaws drop cause it's the world's largest and tallest living thing! That means they are really BIG trees that can grow up to 300 feet tall and 30 feet wide in diameter and live up to 2000 years! You can find these magnificent trees in California. (I got to include that in my bucket list! *fingers crossed* someday!!!) :D

See, how big the tree is in the pictures... My point here is that, sometimes, we're like that tiny seed. We feel like we're nothing at all, worthless. Just a tiny dot in a big world, and in an extremely gigantic universe and how can we actually make a place in the vast infinities? But think of who you really are... Like those redwood seeds, you came from something really BIG. You are a child of God and like you're Father in Heaven, who has created ALL these glory and wonder, you can rise up to your divine potentials! And be like the world's largest and tallest living thing! (Not literally of course!).

You may start to doubt about yourself right now but knowing the fact that you're a BELOVED child of God will make you feel better later on. So drill that in your brain! I felt like a tiny speck of dust lost in oblivion the past week as my self-esteem's going down the drain because I'm bound to do nothing and I was so sick and was forced to self-medicate myself with paracetamols. But then, I got this message during the weekend in those unexpected moments and this was just the exact dose of enlightenment that I need. Don't let anyone put you down, no, no, no, hinding-hindi ka maaring maging walang kwenta. You were born to be someone BIG! You can do GREAT things!  Have faith. Work on it. He loves you so much. He knows you very well, your weaknesses, your strengths, and the desires of your heart and He wants you to be happy! When your will is aligned with God's will, NOTHING IS REALLY IMPOSSIBLE. :)
